Description
The Math Work Review Checklist is a practical, student-friendly tool designed to help students independently review their math work before turning it in. This checklist walks students through intentional self-checking steps, reducing careless errors while building confidence, accuracy, and ownership of their learning.
Grounded in Universal Design for Learning principles, this resource supports executive functioning skills such as self-monitoring, organization, and reflection. While originally created to support students with IEPs and 504 plans who have the “check work” accommodation, it has proven to be an effective support for all learners. Within an MTSS framework, this checklist functions as a Tier 1 support for whole-class instruction and as a Tier 2 or Tier 3 intervention for students who benefit from additional structure and scaffolding.
I have found that with explicit modeling and guided practice, students often internalize the strategies embedded in the checklist and begin to apply them independently, leading to fewer errors, increased independence, and stronger problem-solving habits.
✅ What’s Included
- 1 Math Work Review Checklist (student-friendly format, printable PDF)
- 2 Math Work Review Checklist (teacher-friendly, editable format, Google Doc)
- Both options offer clear, consistent language that supports student independence
🎯 Skills & Concepts Supported
- Self-monitoring and reflection
- Accuracy and attention to detail
- Executive functioning skills
- Independent work habits
- Test-taking and assessment readiness
👩🏫 Perfect For
- Upper elementary and middle school math
- Independent practice, quizzes, and assessments
- IEP and 504 accommodations
- MTSS Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 supports
- General education, intervention, and special education settings
❤️ Why I Love This Resource As A Teacher
- Encourages student independence and accountability
- Reduces careless mistakes without increasing teacher workload
- Easy to model, implement, and reuse
- Supports inclusive classroom practices aligned with UDL and MTSS
💡 Teacher Tip
Model how to use the checklist consistently at the beginning of the year or unit. Over time, many students will internalize the process and apply the strategies automatically without needing the checklist in front of them. This is the dream!
